It would have been like any other Tuesday morning when British product engineer Nick Marson boarded his flight from London Gatwick to Houston on a warm September's day. The divorcee, then 52, had a busy business trip planned in Texas while unbeknownst to him his soon-be-wife from across the Atlantic was sitting aboard the same plane as him.Diane Kirschke, who was at the other end of Continental Airways' flight five, had just finished a trip to see her son in England and was looking forward to returning to her home. After four hours in the air, the intercom crackled to life and a tight-lipped pilot shared some peculiar news.

Dingell, who represents Michigan's 12th Congressional District, shared the recent voicemail Sunday morning in an episode of CNN's State of the Union with Dana Bash to show that the bile continues to pour in. 'You godd*** old senile b****. You’re as old and ugly as Biden. You ought to get the f**** off the planet.

In the latest example of corporate America kowtowing to the Communists in Beijing, internal memos and Amazon.com insiders have revealed the company’s continuing appeasement of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), including colluding with state propaganda operatives to delete reviews of books critical of the regime. Notably, as reported by Reuters, Amazon caved in like a cheap Mao suit to a CCP edict that it stop allowing negative customer ratings and reviews of the book “Xi Jinping: The Governance of China,” which contains many of Xi’s speeches and writings, as well as other state propaganda.It gets worse.Said a company insider, according to Reuters: “I think the issue was anything

Subsequent presidents have recognized Kwanzaa in official White House statements, including President Donald Trump.

As Democrats investigate what went wrong in the 2021 elections and what is going wrong heading into the 2022 elections, a familiar pattern is emerging: Men are abandoning the party in droves.Just this week, snippets from the Democratic Governors Association’s postmortem of the Virginia governor's race were made public , including the report’s conclusion, which read, “We need to address the long-term problems that exist for Democrats with Latinos and black men.”On background from a source with knowledge of the findings in the memo, the Washington Examiner has obtained the underlying data driving this conclusion.
Mark Morgan, former acting commissioner of Customs and Border Protection, said on Thursday’s edition of the Breitbart News Daily podcast with host Alex Marlow that the Biden administration exempts migrants crossing the southern border from coronavirus testing and vaccine mandates while imposing such decrees on Americans.President Joe Biden has repeatedly framed acceptance of COVID-19 vaccination as a “patriotic” action, most recently linking vaccines with “patriotism” and getting vaccinated as a “patriotic duty.”
Nikole Hannah-Jones, 1619 Project creator and professor, said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that parents should not be in charge of deciding what is taught in schools.Hannah-Jones said, “I don’t really understand this idea that parents should decide what’s being taught. I’m not a professional educator. I don’t have a degree in social studies or science. We send our children to school because we want them to be taught by people who have expertise in the subject area. And that is not my job.”
Kamala Harris said she doesn't think she was set up for failure despite a myriad of criticisms plaguing her office in year No. 1 as the first female and minority vice president in U.S. history.Some Democrats have excused Harris' shortcomings, claiming she was given too ambitious of responsibilities as vice president, including addressing the southern border crisis.'I've talked to some of your former Senate colleagues and they say you have been given an impossible portfolio,' CBS Face the Nation host Margaret Brennan prompted in a pre-taped interview that aired Sunday.
Dr. Anthony Fauci on Sunday admitted that the federal government has failed to authorize and distribute a sufficient number of at-home COVID tests, despite President Joe Biden's promise to distribute 500 million free at-home rapid tests amid a surge in new coronavirus cases.In an interview with ABC's Jonathan Karl on Sunday morning, the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases admitted that coronavirus cases are continuing to soar, leading to an increased demand for COVID tests that the government has failed to prepare for, and now cannot meet. 'Obviously testing, Jon, is going to be very important,
Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee might not be one of the highest-profile conservative voices out there, but he sure does know how to make brilliant points when he’s on air.Most recently, he did so on Fox and Friends, where he expounded on how every part of the Biden catastrophe, from supply chain holdups to skyrocketing Bidenflation, means that Americans are getting a lump of coal for Christmas.Watch him here:(Video) As you can hear in the video, when asked “Is President Biden possibly headed for a lump of coal on Christmas with broken promises?” he says:“Well, he certainly has given most Americans a lump of coal.

Known anti-white racist Michael Harriot admitted on Christmas Day that his favorite Christmas past-time involves “hating on Christmas,” especially because of that dastardly white Santa Clause.He made the admission on MSNBC, of course, and more specifically while speaking with Tiffany Cross, the equally bigoted host.To be fair, it’s not clear whether he was being serious or just jesting. Given his track record for hateful rhetoric, however, the assumption is that he was being dead serious.NewsBusters, a conservative watch dog group focused on “combating liberal media bias,” has compiled the relevant remarks into one clip.The clip begins with Cross dismissing the notion of there being a war on Christmas.

As looting continues and lockdowns return, many retail companies have announced recently that they are shuttering some locations that have become simply too expensive to maintain.Major cities have been hit by a wave of “smash-and-grab” robberies, where organized groups of looters attack store employees and escape with thousands of dollars in merchandise.

The Mankato School Board in Minnesota in a blatantly racist move has unanimously voted to pay non-white teachers “additional stipends,” not on their merit or content of character, but solely based on the color of their skin, and for teaching staff to be segregated by race.Board members hotly defended the policy vote earlier this month claiming it wasn’t “segregation,” according to AlphaNews on Tuesday.“When you’re one [minority] of a [white] majority it can be very isolating and lonely,” declared board member Erin Roberts. “To have a support system in place for them is not to segregate them, it is absolutely to support them …

Except, the woman wasn’t wearing her mask either.
The footage shows the Karen shouting at a man behind her for not wearing a mask, then hitting him when he responded: “You put your mask on!”
Flight attendants tried to intervene, but the woman punched, scratched and spat on the man.
It’s Christmas. If you are living in the United States under a Democratic president, that doesn’t mean wishing the American people ‘Merry Christmas.’ Or messages about the sacred Christian holiday celebrating the birth of Jesus.What it means are hyper-politicized messages that seek to hijack the holiday and put it in the service of the left’s radical agenda. In 2021, that means dragging out the Covid pandemic and bullying Americans into getting a “booster.”A “booster,” in case one hasn’t noticed, is a tacit admission of failure. It is a silent concession that the “vaccines” that were once touted as “100% safe and effective” have failed to stop infections and
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration is recruiting priests and theologians to assess how the world’s major religions would react to the news of discovering extraterrestrial life and advise the agency on how to quell civil unrest upon the revelation.The agency has enlisted 24 religious experts to develop protocols for the discovery of alien life in its Center for Theological Inquiry program at Princeton University in New Jersey.NASA provided CTI with a $1.1 million grant to create the program devoted to researching “the societal implications of astrobiology” in 2015.

The Native American population in the U.S. grew by a staggering 86.5% between 2010 and 2020, according to the latest U.S. Census – a rate demographers say is impossible to achieve without immigration.
Birth rates among Native Americans don’t explain the massive rise in numbers. And there certainly is no evidence of an influx of Native American expatriates returning to the U.S.
